Success is about evolution. Change is healthy. I like to reinvent myself.

There was a period of time when I first moved to Nashville, like the first couple of years, that I was just simply lost. I didn't know who I was; I didn't know really what I was doing here. I was meant to be a singer, but I just felt lost. That's when I went on the search for my birth family.

When I wake up in a bad mood, I try not to stay in one. Learn to make the best of what you have.

I think what makes our marriage work amid all the glare is that my husband is my best friend. He inspires everything in my life and enables me to do the best that I can. I want to hang out with him more than anyone.

Children are easily influenced, and I always want to do things I can be proud to show my kids someday.

My goal as an artist is to always be true to who I am and give my fans music they will enjoy for a lifetime

Country music is the people's music. It just speaks about real life and about truth and it tells things how they really are.
